Gamedev currently working on cursed existence
Love Löve/Love2d and Lua!
I found a style I like for the curse cards in my game!
And it's not even insanely time-intensive :D
This one's the card for "agression", roughly modeled after my chonky cat being threatening, haha^^
I think this'll look good on a card, and I can keep that style up :)

(Small) Milestone:
Yesterday, I put my first dialogue tree written with MY OWN dialogue editor in my game!
Now let's hope it'll actually get me to write more dialogue on the go, which it was meant for, haha^^

Game companies should release their old proprietary engine tools.

What's the harm in releasing your stuff you used to make games with on like, the Dreamcast? Or like, Bioware's old engines?

Video game companies are way too greedy about dead, useless shit (like IP they're never going to use ever).

I think any technical gamedevs who aren't on Tig will get a kick out of this:

Dude's making a raytraced puzzle game - all on the CPU!

Really like the devlog too:

Raytraced _on the CPU_.
Wishlist it :D

I need to brush up on my art skills again, and doing lil' animations seems a good way to do that^^

Not sure I'll be animating anything in-game as my skills just aren't there yet, but practice is practice :)

(Also at least it loops on here, thank fuck)

Today I will be adding some fun Easter eggs to the game.

Shouting OPEN SESAME into the mic to open a pack.

Saying "heart of the cards" once per battle to draw something good.

Holding B when opening a pack to get better odds.

None of this will be documented beyond here.

Well, in between modeling, I got sidetracked once again, but implemented dialogue trees - now I just need a tool to let me write dialogue from wherever I want and on my phone too...

Peglin is an absolute *GEM* - I only wanted it to be longer, but it also doesn't overstay its welcome, so maybe it's fine the way it is^^

So I've been Playing #rainworld and damn... Reading the devlog didn't prepare me for the effect it'd have on me - I'm excited like i'm 12 years old, holy shit is it fun (and brutal) :D
It also made me realize I should just work around a problem I'm having. Can't have perfect solutions for everything
December 27, 2025 at 4:51 PM
I think now that all my base mechanics are done, and I have most of the first level mapped out, I should refine what I have to get it to look like it does in my brain :D

Working on improving my art skills across all areas for that too... It's been too long since I drew something.

Look no, I just can't _not_ share this.
These are near-lethal levels of adorable^^
The game looks amazing too, no doubt, but the narrator steals the spotlight^^
🪱🪱🪱Wirm is out right now!!!🪱🪱🪱
Please enjoy this new trailer voiced by my 2-year-old son, then go buy the game on Steam!

I've spent two of my valuable gamedev evenings chasing a bug that completely broke my game, was triggered by a textbox opening and was caused by me not declaring two variables as local.
I love Lua, but damn. That one hurt.

Oh, the bad decisions of my past are catching up to me, you say?
At least I remember thinking that doing things this way was a bad idea, because I left a comment about it...
Time to fix my past mistakes!
Whenever I find the time to do so...

If something can be exotic, does that imply the existence of endotic things?
Like in endo/exo-skeleton?

Rarely do I have such a simple plan^^
Knockback overhaul:
- rename anim_speed_multiplier on weapons to weight_multiplier
- add base_knockback to wapons
- multiply weapon's anim speed with material's weight_multiplier - multiply base_knockback with material's weight_multiplier

I was scrolling so long to find this post!
This is what I want to aim for, even though I'm still worlds away from that much style^^

This fucker would need a proper remake anyways, the first two thirds of the game were absolutely amazing :D

Debugging a shader issue which causes all my characters to be naked on OpenglES devices - so far I've traced it to the clothing color not being passed into the shader, but I'm at a loss as to _why_ so far.

Maybe my characters just want to be naked...

I want to make a french character called Nathan hiber, who sleeps all day.

His friends call him... no wait, you put the dumb pun together yourself.
